While the real fame came to Rolls-Royce with the introduction of the 6-cylinder engine “Silver Ghost,” the legend was born with the exceptionally small group of pre-Silver Ghost-era Rolls-Royce Light 20hp. With just 19 such models built, the Light 20hp model is a rare sight, and to grab one would be a once in a lifetime opportunity. Bonhams is giving away one such opportunity in the Collectors’ Motor Cars and Automobilia on Dec. 7 at Olympia, London. Formerly the property of the late Stanley Sears and the late Thomas Love, this model adopted a shorter wheelbase than the standard model and has a four-speed gearbox with direct drive on third and overdrive top gear. Estimated price $667,640 to $1million
